A typical LGB model train on a garden railway layout.. LGB stands for Lehmann Gross Bahn - the "Lehmann Big Train" in German. Made by Ernst Paul Lehmann Patentwerk in Nuremberg, Germany, since 1968 [1] and by Märklin since 2007, it is the most popular garden railway model in Europe, although there are also many models of U.S. and Canadian prototypes.

Too tight a 'crest' curve could result in the train leaving the track as it drops away beneath it; too tight a 'trough' and the train will plough downwards into the rails and damage them. More precisely, the support force R exerted by the track on a train as a function of the curve radius r, the train mass m, and the speed v, is given by
A defect detector is a device used on railroads to detect axle and signal problems in passing trains. The detectors are normally integrated into the tracks and often include sensors to detect several different kinds of problems that could occur.
IIm gauge LGB Train. Gauge 2 (also called 2 gauge or II gauge) is a model railway gauge, originally 64 mm (2 + 1 ⁄ 2 in), [1] then standardised in 1909 at 2 in (50.8 mm), a 20% reduction and a change in definition: from mm to inch. [citation needed] It has since fallen into disuse. The gauge was introduced by Märklin at the Leipzig toy fair ...
The 45 mm gauge originated from 1 gauge or "gauge one" which was first used in Europe and Britain and used to model standard gauge trains in the scale of 1:32. LGB were first to adopt the term G scale and used the gauge of 45 mm (1.772 in) to model 1,000 mm gauge European trains in 1:22.5 scale.

LGB produced a USRA Light Mikado from 2001 to 2004 in G scale in multiple fallen flag railroad names including product number 21872, Pennsylvania Railroad No. 2809. In HO scale, Märklin produced both a 2 rail version (TRIX brand) [4] in 2004 (product ID 22804) and a 3-rail version (product ID 37976) [5] in 2011. Both of these faithfully ...
